The Poughkeepsie City School District is forming its next Strategic Plan and it's looking for your input.
The updated Strategic Plan will aim to create a roadmap that not only reflects the aspects of our schools that are already working well but also addresses areas in which we can make improvements. We are committed to considering your perspectives and opinions on the direction we should take. Accordingly, we've launched a survey, open through June 27, for you to share your insights.
The survey platform allows you to contribute your thoughts anonymously, and you can also view and rate the feedback provided by other community members. We encourage an open and ongoing dialogue, so feel free to revisit the platform often and keep the conversation alive.

Together, We are Champions for Children in Poughkeepsie City Schools
The Poughkeepsie City School District Wellness Committee is comprised of staff, faculty, administration, families and community partners. We currently meet the 2nd Thursday of every month at the Poughkeepsie Middle School from 3:15 – 4:30. We encourage every building within the district, as well as administration, the Board of Education, students and families to share their thoughts, ideas and experiences as it relates to wellness for the District.
Mission: We, the Poughkeepsie City School District Wellness Committee, are committed to establishing and maintaining a school environment that promotes health and well-being. By providing structure and support for staff, administration, students, and families, we hope to ensure that all schools within the Poughkeepsie School District are equipped with the necessary tools to promote healthy and active lifestyles within our school community. We are dedicated to helping communicate and implement the local school wellness policy, required and established by the Child Nutrition and WIC Reauthorization Act of 2004.
Vision: The Poughkeepsie City School District Wellness Committee envisions a community free of chronic disease that understands, embraces and practices lifelong wellness where they live, work, play and learn through nutritious food consumption and active living.
